The funny thing i thought I was ordering the big size and the smaller version showed up. A bit of a pain to solder though

Is this a tailbone light?

Do you have a thread on this?

It’s just a piece of transparent acrylic I sanded translucent. The light is just an ordinary light–an iwonder skateboard light in this case. I got the idea from the exway wave and Boosted.

If I could find a clear tailbone that fits Powell-Peralta (8") then I could add SMT LEDs to it.

I feel like ABS or nylon would be a better choice than acrylic though. I’m not sure.

I just had a sheet of clear acrylic lying around.

That’s awesome. Great idea!

I made one for my hammerhead hosoi out of pla and it’s been solid. It’s got better impact resistance than a lot of other filaments and they make a clearish filament.
Becomes less clear with more infill and a kick tail would be solid but at least it would distribute light maybe?

Disposable e-cigs should be banned in my opinion. Saving these from the trash, turns out they have decent batteries in them.

You could have fooled me, with those microscopic wires in there.

What gauge are those?

haha, it’s like 30ga? Maybe smaller 0.4mm diameter. Not surprisingly the failure rate of these devices is quite high just from my experience. Another reason why I think they should be banned.

Maybe not banned, but just put a large tax on them
